PTVNews 188 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Does anyone know what that plastic material is that the blue light shines though is called? Also, what about the "metal" strips that create the boxes? Thanks. Image 1 Image 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeters 1822 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 [st]That would likely be frosted Arcrylic glass.[/st] And the metal is probably just aluminum or polished steel. EDIT: Err, on closer inspection, that looks to be a plastic sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTVNews 188 Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 EDIT: Err, on closer inspection, that looks to be a plastic sheet. Yeah, ok. But is there a certain name for it or anything? Or do you know where to buy it? Someplace like Lowe's? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeters 1822 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Yeah, ok. But is there a certain name for it or anything? Or do you know where to buy it? Someplace like Lowe's? Thanks! I checked around Google and found this, but it's pretty thin. Maybe you could email someone like FX Group, KPTV (that's a local set, right?), or one of the set fabrication companies and ask them what it is exactly and where it can be acquired.

PTVNews 188 Posted May 23, 2009 Author Share Posted May 23, 2009 Yeah. I've tried searching Google. I guess I'll try and email. It is a local set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestbiteme 13 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Yeah. I've tried searching Google. I guess I'll try and email. It is a local set. You could probably achieve that look with a properly size sheet of Lexan and an opaque acrylic finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeters 1822 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 The website I linked to also sells Acrylic sheets with P95 coating, which FX Group uses in it's sets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goo 0 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Check out what KHIZ did in SoCal. They built an entire set from stuff just from Ikea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstNews8 13 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Thats pretty cool... Ive always wondered how FX and others build those nice desks and such, looks complicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
